Categories     Cheesecake

Time 12h20m

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
5 tablespoons granulated sugar
6 tablespoons melted butter
pinch of salt
4 (8-oz) bars cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1/2 cup amaretto liqueur
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
3 tablespoons cornstarch
pinch of salt
1 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons amaretto
whip cream
maraschino cherries
additional sliced almonds

Steps:

  • CRUST: 1. Place oven racks in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9-inch springform pan with a round of parchment paper (cut to fit), set aside. 2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, butter and salt until well combined. Using the bottom of a measuring cup, press crust into the bottom and halfway up the sides of prepared springform pan. Bake for 7 minutes and remove from the oven and set aside. 3. Reduce oven heat to 325°F. FILLING: 1. In a large bowl using a hand mixer (or in the bowl of a stand mixer), beat cream cheese with granulated sugar until no lumps remain. 2. Add eggs, one at a time, beating mixture between each egg, then beat in the amaretto, vanilla extract and almond extract. Add cornstarch and salt and beat until smooth. 3. Tap the cheesecake batter bowl on the counter for 30-45 seconds to remove as many air bubbles as possible. You should see them popping on the surface as you tap the bowl. Pour filling into the center of the graham cracker crust and gently smooth the top. 4. Bake for 30 minutes at 325°F. Reduce temperature to 250°F and continue baking for another 35 minutes. Once this time has elapsed, turn the oven off and keep cheesecake inside for another 30 minutes, but DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR. After the 30 minutes has passed, crack the oven door open to let cheesecake cool slowly for one hour before removing. 5. Allow cheesecake to cool to room temperature on the counter (approximately 3-4 hours) before covering with plastic wrap and transferring to the fridge to chill. 6. Refrigerate cheesecake until completely chilled (about 6-8 hours, or overnight). Open springform pan and remove the metal collar. TOPPING: 1. Preheat the oven to 325°F and spread the almonds on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake them for 7 to 8 minutes or until just fragrant. Remove from oven and set aside. 2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter and brown sugar, stirring often, until smooth. Add the heavy cream and amaretto and bring to a low boil. Boil for 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Stir in toasted almonds. Allow sauce to cool to room temperature before pouring over the cooled cheesecake.

Provided by Vseward Chef-V

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup almonds, toasted sliced (or slivered)
2 tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup amaretti cookie, crumbs*
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 3/4 cups sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
18 ounces cream cheese, softened
6 eggs, separated
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
1 1/4 teaspoons almond extract
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F Wrap foil around outside of 9 1/2- or 10-inch springform pan to prevent leaks while baking.
  • In food processor, combine toasted almonds and 2 tablespoons sugar; pulse until finely chopped. Add amaretti crumbs and melted butter; pulse to mix. Press crumb mixture evenly over bottom of pan. Set aside.
